150K - most of it through Amex spends.
I called Amex yesterday and checked on the viability of the Kingfisher Amex card and they told me that if I chose another card, the Kingfisher card would get automatically cancelled. I asked if there are any offers on and the answer was no.
Anybody converted their card to a different one and got any offers?

Finally it happened, on AoI forum too. I had raised the point in Mileage Run deals forum that AI (for all inclusive) was confusing as it could also mean Air India.

Showing tons of options these days; am inclined to burn out my tiny set of 22k miles on DEL-BOM RT Y. How reliable are they on this sector these days? Did you travel already?

just flew bom-del yesterday....the flight was on time but the aircraft condition was terrible....torn & dirty seats, torn carpet, no drinks offered (except water) for the duration of the flight, meal option was veg or non-veg biryani (which surprisingly was good)....the flight was full though which i guess is a good sign for kingfisher....

The flight routing was odd too. We essentially flew west to Mumbai and then north following the usual BOM-DEL track.
Keyser, did you get a boarding pass with a white sticky dot on it? Beneath the dot there's the Oneworld logo!
